The 1991 European Baseball Championship was held in Nettuno, Italy and was won by Italy, sweeping the Netherlands in a three-game championship series. Italy was undefeated as host and qualified for the 1992 Summer Olympics. The Soviet Union competed in its only European championship, winning four of its last five games. Great Britain, which lost all eight games, would not return to the tournament until 1997.

Dutch coach Jim Stoeckel resigned from the team after not qualifying for the Olympics. Dutch sportswriters said the Netherlands had one of their worst performances ever in the tournament.
